It was a mod, mod world backstage at Fall 2010 Fashion Week. From Erin Fetherston to Cynthia Steffe, the look for hair was all about thick, blunt-cut bangs that harkened back to the mod squad models of the late 1960's and early 1970's. Here, some of our favorite versions of the look. Consider yourself warned: The bang is back and it's bigger (and blunter) than ever.

At Cynthia Steffe, Bumble and bumble lead stylist Rolando Beauchamp gave models a clip-on faux bang to help embody the late 1960's cool British/French girl inspiration. "We're doing a really thick fringe, but the texture on the hair is dirty, like two-day old hair," he said. The slept in texture added to the cool girl feel, giving models a messy-sexy hairstyle that was retro without being too literal.

Models at Erin Fetherston continued on the "retro yet modern" vibe with long straight hair and shiny bangs. Stylist Odile Gilbert for Moroccanoil wanted the girls to look sweet but with a little bit of a rock 'n roll edge, and, of course, very downtown.

Elsewhere at shows like Staerk (shown at left) and L.A.M.B., we saw models rocking super-shiny strands that complemented their equally shiny and slightly rounded bangs. The effect there was a bit more 1930's starlet, but the blunt bangs were just as cool and on-trend.
